3/30/2008 PHILADELPHIA, PA --

Chester police are confirming the discovery of four bodies in an apartment in this city just south of Philadelphia. Police chief Floyd Lewis says crews were called at about 7 p.m. Saturday to a second-floor apartment where they found the bodies of a man, two women and a child.

Authorities initially believed the deaths were caused by carbon monoxide, but the fire department ruled that out.

Police are investigating the deaths as suspicious and Lewis says they hope to have more answers after autopsies on the victims, whose names have not been released.
